Very fun! I love to hear fun stuff like this about people...and I totally agree about the angel thing. I'm glad you've noticed that too!
How fun that Preslie's birthday is Christmas Eve!! What a party! We are FINALLY spending Christmas at home this year.. our first time. You just have to go home to families when you are in school and have such a long break.
BTW. love the top pic of you, hubby and baby. So sweet. Val sent me a few sneak peaks of your family pictures and can I just say that you guys are the cutest family ever??
